The Frontline Walk 2025: The Normandy Beaches

Rugby Relics 25

I'm taking part in the Frontline Walk: The Normandy Beaches. I'll be trekking 100km of the coastline stormed as part of Operation Overlord during the D-Day landings of the Second World War over 3 days. 

I'll be doing this to commemorate the sacrifices made by those who fought in WWII whilst helping to support the soldiers and veterans of today.  

It will be a physically and emotionally tough challenge, but I'm doing it all for a great cause: the Army Benevolent Fund, the National Charity of the British Army. They support soldiers, veterans and their families when they need it most.

As a veteran and with relatives currently serving, the work the Army Benevolent Fund undertakes in vitally important. 

Please cheer me on by making a donation towards my target.
